CURRANTS AND RAISINS.
THE QUESTION OF DUTY. REMOVING A DIFFICULTY. By Telegraph.—Pres? Association Wellington, Last Night. “I understand,” stated the Minister of Customs to-day, “that merchants are embarrassed in placing their season s orders' for and raisins owing to uncertainty whether the suspended duty against foreigh countries is to be brought into operation co as to help Australia. In order to meet this difficulty I have cabled to the Minister of Customs in Australia notifying him that if, ae a result of the negotiations, a duty is imposed on foreign currants and raisins, it can only operate from next January. This should enable merchants to know where they are, as I understand orders now placed are usually delivered not later thhn November.”
